Washington Goes Goo-Goo for Geeky Hungo-American Obamaman

Back in November we had a little fun with the picture at left of Peter Orszag, the extremely geeky-looking Hungarian American incoming US Pres Barack Obama had tapped to be America’s budget czar. Well, believe it or not, the man whose name in Hungarian means “country” has apparently been turned into some kind of sex symbol, or at least is saying things that are making people think he should become some kind of sex symbol, such as describing the White House’s pending economic stimulus legislation as “a package that is responsive to this massive gap.” Click here to watch him say it in a voice that is so girlishly geeky we’ll have to assume he doesn’t mean it in that way. Though you can never be sure! In fact, what some Washington journalists are calling “Orszagmania” has already resulted in what one notably dirty-minded DC hack dubbed an “Orszagasm.” If only she knew that in Hungarian it would mean (roughly) “countrywide orgasm.” And if only we were having one, too!
